  • Lady Ga Ga has been bankrupt 4 times

    I'm quite shocked. Once is a big decision for anyone (unless it has been done deliberately), twice is either very poor luck, not learning or not caring..........but 4 times?!

    :eek: I never knew that and I love Lady GaGa, a huge shock she is only my age too :o

    I didn't realise she was only 23........surely between 18 and 23 you can't be bankrupt 4 times???

    And Morgan Freeman (72) is going to marry his step-granddaughter (27)........has the world gone a bit screwy today?!

    Hines is the granddaughter of Freeman's first wife - and he and Myrna (second wife who is currently divorcing) have raised her since she was a young child.

    Woody Allen and his adopted daughter (or whatever she was) was weird enough........but a step granddaughter who he has raised?!

    Hi! I am a newbie, but thought I'd pop in here and say hello. Lady GaGa bankrupt four times? Blimey! I heard about the Morgan Freeman thing yesterday, seems a bit bizzare doesn't it...

    I'm sitting at my Mum's waiting for Mr SS to come back off a Paintballing stag do. He's already informed me that he is very messy, and that I should expect that the bedcovers I bought the other week that are still in the boot of the car will be used to keep the seats clean. :rolleyes: Men and their cars!

    Whilst I'm here I was just wondering if someone could direct me to the appropriate forum to ask about a default on a bank account? I just want to ask a couple of questions or see some information about it. TIA! x

    hi silent smile and welcome.

    Men and their cars? :D You are going to fit in here just fine :rotfl:

    You could either post on this forum (DFW) if you are in debt and they are chasing you, or on the bank account forum. I'd start here (but then i'm biased!) - there's loads of really knowledgable people on DFW who can help.

    afternoon all - productive day. Have been packing boxes, shared kitchen stuff, towels, bedding etc.

    Not moving proper until next week, but am dropping off boxes of stuff so the actual move will only be for the big stuff by next weekend.


    Thanks for thoughts guys...

    Pap - erin loves the house... only potential deal breaker thus far is the lack of sky tv! lol!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Thanks BB. I think I know the answer (I just wanted to know how long a default would stay on my credit file. Answer - 6 years :( ) but I know where to go with any other questions.

    In his defence, it is a brand new car, and if it gets dirty he'll only spend the whole of tomorrow cleaning it :rotfl:That said, it'll stop him from watching the Ashes...!!!

    yes, 6 years sadly :(

    I guess outside cleaning it means he is out from under your feet and you can do whatever you fancy inside :D

    It's not so bad, I've already done four years so have two left to go. Someone told me it would come off in 3, which is why I was confused as to it still being there!

    Haha, very true! Although I'm sure I'll get roped into it as well!
